Аннотация
<p><strong>Najmiddinova Mekhrigul Najmiddin kizi</strong></p> <p><em>Hospitality constitutes a core cultural value that exhibits substantial variation across different societies. This study offers a comparative analysis of hospitality-related expressions in English and Uzbek, illustrating how linguistic manifestations of hospitality reflect distinct cultural paradigms. In Uzbek culture, hospitality is regarded as a sacred obligation, with a rich array of idiomatic expressions and proverbs emphasizing the honored status of guests. Adopting a comparative linguopragmatic framework, the research examines phraseological units associated with hospitality in both languages, uncovering critical differences in their expressive forms and underlying cultural meanings. In English, hospitality expressions typically strive to foster an informal and relaxed atmosphere for guests while simultaneously minimizing the host's obligations. In contrast, Uzbek expressions tend to be marked by a high degree of formality, emotional expressiveness, and explicit recognition of the guest’s elevated status—features characteristic of high-context communicative cultures. The findings suggest that in Uzbek, hospitality is deeply interwoven into the linguistic system and enjoys more explicit and elaborate representation compared to English, where it is less overtly encoded. By highlighting these divergences, the study underscores the importance of cultural sensitivity in intercultural communication, where misinterpretations may arise due to contrasting pragmatic conventions. Ultimately, the research contributes to the broader discourse on linguistic relativity within pragmatics, demonstrating how language shapes social behavior and mediates the cultural conceptualization of hospitality.</em></p>
